Standards

目前我知道国内有至少两家主要的互联网公司用了这样的域名，不知道他们用的是什么域名服务器，至少 BIND 9 是不支持这样做的。

RFC 952 - 美国国防部互联网主机表规范中的相关条文如下：

2005年底发布的信息技术新国标中有GB18030-2005，这是取代GB18030-2000的新的强制性标准。

Rumor said that the GB18030 standardization working committee has been disbanded some weeks ago, and GB (Q) 18030-2000 standard is pending to be abandoned soon. In addition, the new identity card system developed by the Ministry of Public Security has been stuck because of Chinese coding problem.

I am really disappointing about this news. An earlier discussion on this topic could be founded here.
